After a trip off the side of a 2m high elevated bridge onto rocks a month ago, my Truvativ Noir bars are all chewed up. Fortunately that was the only damage to bike or rider - I got real lucky. (I broke the rule of looking only where you want to go, and looked at what I wanted to avoid. Gumby stuff. )

So I need some new flat bars 700mm wide with a bit of sweepback.

I don't have the budget for the uber lightweight stuff from Germany, but it would be good to shave some grams. Will probably grab a matching seatpost at the same time. Prefer to have a name brand so there is some accountability.

I'm also looking for a new handlebar, I snapped my Tune handlebar in a minor crash (in my opinion it snapped way too easy...) and for sure I don't look anymore for a superlight bar having weight limit but in the same time I don't want to get a heavy one.My first option now would be Easton EC90 SL Carbon Flat : https://www.bike24.com/1.php?content=8&product=108602

I got my EC90 for under £90 on CRC. Very happy with it and 124g. More like 740mm width end to end so you could chop some g's off if you really prefer 700mm bars.

I have had the usual superlight suspects but had the same experience as muntos in finding them far too fragile, especially at the bar end. I don't want to write off a very expensive component slightly clipping a tree. After 2 or 3 times of doing that I finally took the hint

The other one to look at is Mt Zoom. Very well priced, nice and light, excellent warranty and 1/2 price crash replacement if you do something stupid and damage them through your own fault. Ant will always sort you out if something happens so no reason to not go for them

I finally ordered a mt zoom the other day. Ended up being same price as ec90 but has a better warranty. The 1/2 price crash replacment was the deal maker. Plus I have never hear of any real problems with them.
